Wayne Proudlove: Well, I've decided to learn about the Sicilian Defence because it's so solid and popular so I started with the Najdorf by memorizing the opening moves and reading a few paragraphs on why Black plays a6 preparing e5 and what goes wrong if he plays e5 first, and how Kasparov likes to play e6 instead. Then I fell asleep on the couch for the rest of the day and now on having awoken I feel I have made a real stride in my chess ability, although does it really matter because I don't even think the chessplaying girl I'm trying so hard to impress likes me anyways, but then again I really do love the game.
